    A beautiful route through quieter parts of the the Slad Valley. Magnificent views! I descended from Bisley Road, but I'm definitely going back for the climb, which looks awesome and long!

    Edit: I've done the climb now and it was much harder than I thought it would be and much steeper than Komoot suggests. It's over 20% in a couple of spots, especially steep going around the sharp corners nearer the top. It's also a bit rough and loose in a few places and sometimes you need to pick your line. A very good challenge though.

    This is up there with one of the most difficult climbs in the south Cotswold's in my opinion. Hard at the beginning and the end is very tough, I'll be back to attempt it again when my thighs have recovered. Fortunately it's in a beautiful secluded valley so no-one saw me slipping and sliding in full kit w***r attire pushing my bike

    A climb of two halves, with a short, cruise through the midpoint to recover. Make the most of that bit, because the second half of this climb is a beast. 20-25% round the corners, on a loose and probably damp surface. Have fun!
